"Immortality" by Pearl Jam



I think I like this song playing during the opening moments of Ferryman's Heralds instead of "Burn." I hesitate to use this song just because it seems like it might seem to obvious, since the whole story is about the darker side of immortality, at least partly, and using "Immortality" by Pearl Jam might just be a bit too obvious. Then again, it might not be. Anyway, I think it's good for it.

"Burn" by Three Days Grace Accompanies Twig's Introduction

This song plays during the opening scene of Chapter One of A Book of Ferryman's Heralds, found here: http://lithnmark.blogspot.com/2011/11/chapter-one-part-one.html

The song plays while Twig accidentally rouses the people asleep in Lockwood manor and during their search for the spook that has so upset the horses and dogs. The song continues until Twig sees his daughter, Trilby.

This song is selected partly because it's loud and metal. It's high time high fantasy is permitted a soundtrack of metal. Metal artists have been writing fantasy themed music for long enough. Also, the opening scenes of Heralds are frozen and filled with snow. A loud song about burning things is fittingly contrary to the story.
